Entry: Guitar Hero - the Console Games - A87824857
Author: SashaQ - towel - U9936370

This is a Flea Market rescue of A38690094 (which turned out to have been a copy of the author's article on W*k*).

Magwitch and I collaborated on bringing it up to date, and here it is

I love a Flea Market Rescue, and I'm surprised no-one's commented on this yet.

Well, just to get the ball rolling, am I correct in thinking that the DS games only work on the original DS models, and not on the smaller ones without the Advance cartridge slot?

I'll have a thorough read through later on!

Thanks BB

Good point - I added a paragraph on the DS Guitar Grip compatibility

I've just noticed that we have an Edited Article on the PS2: A279641 Sony's PlayStation 2 - the Gaming Console. You could link to that, but try not to make the link longer than the article.

Loved the fact you mentioned Queen...

<BB<

Yes, couldn't resist mentioning Queen, as the promise of a Queen song was the only reason I bought GH in the first place



Hmm... that PS2 Entry is totally out of date... I see the original author sort of did an update, but included some inaccuracies and I don't understand the comments explaining the actual situation I have played a PS2 (once) - could I update the Entry?

If you feel confident about Updating the entry, having only played a PS2 once, then yes, go for it - I agree it needs it!

(I know how you feel about the joy of playing Queen - that's why I got Beatles Rock Band)

This is a good entry!

My daughter has three different versions of Guitar Hero for the Playstation 2, and three different guitars - one is as you describe, one also has a "whammy bar" (vibrato lever) and one has a special slider on the neck as well as the buttons.

I've not added the link to PS2, as the Entry isn't ready.

I have added some more information about the additional functionality on the later guitar controllers - thanks Gnomon

I'm working on a picture.
